b-Vibe Triplet Anal Beads Review
My Verdict
b-Vibe iterates on classic toy designs adding their own flair. The Triplet is b-Vibe's take on anal beads with 3 beads increasing in size. The Triplet has double motors and is controlled by remote. The vibrations were surprising strong and more rumbly than I had anticipated from the size. The Triplet comes in the usual black and the very cool magenta. The remote makes it very easy to control and is a feature that I love in anal toys. The Triplet is water resistant making it easy to clean great to use in the shower. This toy is a great size for beginners and fun for more experienced users too.

Personal Experience
First Experience
I was pretty excited to test the b-Vibe Triplet. I have used vibrating butt plugs and anal beads before, but I haven’t tried vibrating beads. The packaging of the toy was nice and the bright colors added to the impression that the Triplet was designed to be fun and relaxing. After opening the Triplet I waited anxiously for it to charge. Before inserting the toy I learned the controls and tested the vibrations. The controls were somewhat different from similar toys I had used in the past but I figured it out eventually. Using a generous amount of lube I inserted the Triplet. The first 2 beads slid in easily, the 3rd and largest bead was a bit harder to get in, but it slid in too with a bit of pressure. I turned on the vibrations, and tried out the different patterns until I found a pulsing pattern I liked. I jumped in the shower and started to dial up the intensity. I started to touch myself. The warm relaxing water and vibrations let me get close to orgasm. When I got close to orgasming a few times my pelvic floor muscles clenched, which forced the largest bead out. The toy didn’t fall because the other beads held it in place, I reinserted it and continued. I edged for about 20 min before release. I had a satisfyingly strong blended orgasm.Second Test
The first time I tried the Triplet I left it in place and enjoyed the vibrations. The second time I used the Triplet I decided to thrust it in and out to fully experience the beads. I lubed up and inserted the toy then I knelt down for easy access. The beads felt good going in and out but made it harder to enjoy the vibrations. The base was also a little hard to grip while thrusting.Partnered Play
I used the B-vibe Triplet solo a couple of times but I wanted to see how it performed during partnered sex. The Triplet stayed comfortably in place and the vibrations added to the experience. I lost the remote during sex so I couldn’t change settings.Design
The Triplet is b-Vibes take on classic anal beads. The triplet has 3 beads that gradually increase in size from 0.8 inches to 1.2 inches. The toy seems designed for beginner and intermediate anal play enthusiasts. A plug with 3 beads is a relatively common toy design but b-Vibe improved on the design by focusing on the details. The Triplet has a comfortable T-shaped base, the beads are well sized for easy insertion but provide plenty of stimulation, and the shaft is flexible enough bend with my body.
Ease of Use
I'm embarrassed to say that I couldn't get the triplet to turn on without reading the manual despite having similar toys. The toy is turned on by tapping the power button on the beads, then pressing the power button on the remote which connects the remote to the toy then pressing on the vibration controls to turn on the vibrations. Other toys I have tried start vibrating when the power button on the remote is pressed. Once I figured out how to control the triplet, it was pretty easy to use. The base is a little hard to grip while thrusting it in and out, but in comfortable when it is just sitting in place.
Quality
Like other b-Vibe toys I have tried, the Triplet is good quality with of lots of thought put into the design. So far it has been very reliable. The silicone has a nice feel and is comfortably firm. It is pleasurable to use and easy to clean. The remote makes controlling the vibrations easy. The vibrations are strong and rumbly for a you of its size. It has good battery life and has not run out during use.
Price
The b-Vibe Triplet is on the expensive side, especially for a toy marketed to beginners. It is great quality and comes with a storage bag, charger and manual. I would definitely buy it on sale, but I might consider other toys first at full price.
Performance
The b-Vibe Triplet preformed better then I anticipated, the vibrations were both stronger and more rumbly than I expected. The toy is almost silent at the lower settings and at Max intensity it is a bit louder then a phone on vibrate. I have not run the battery all the way down yet, but it has lasted for over and hour of use with a full charge.
Packaging
The packaging for the triplet is eye-catching and fun. The packaging has a straightforward color scheme of light pink with white highlights and bright magenta text. The design is simple displaying a picture of the toy, b-Vibe's logo, and a badge showing that b-Vibe's was chosen as "most progressive company of the year" by XBiz. I like bright sparse design and I think b-Vibe nailed it on the packaging.
Materials and care
The Triplet is coated in semi-firm silicone. The has a matte surface that feels velvety to the touch and gets very slick with some lube. The toy is splashproof so it can be used in the shower or washed but it should not be fully submerged. After use I clean the Triplet with soap and warm water then allow it to air dry. I store the toy in the included storage bag between uses. Unfortunately the silicone does retain a smell even after thorough cleaning, which I have also noticed with other b-Vibe toys.
